It is the King's Choice

We tend to be “Either – Or”
people; We
think . . .Either God chooses
OR Man chooses. AND then we
reason If God
chooses, then Man has no choice BUTIf Man
chooses, then it is out of God's
realm. But this pattern
of thinking is uninformed by the revealed truth in God's Word, the Bible. Have
you ever read these verses in Proverbs? Proverbs
16:33 says, “The lot is cast into the lap, But its every decision is from the
LORD.”. The random
processes, the mathematical calculations of odds are not solely governed
either by chance nor by the odds – But God is the one who determines the
outcome. (is not that what it says) Proverbs 21:1
says, "The king's heart is like channels of water in the hand of the LORD; He turns
it wherever He wishes". Unlike our
president, a king was completely sovereign and answered to no earthly
authority apart from himself. The king did what the king's heart desired . .
. yet, what does the verse say? God turns the kings heart like diverting a
stream of water. As a child
spent hours and hours playing in the water . . . built dams, made pools,
diverted the flow of little streams this way or that. God's controlling
the heart of the king is that
way. Proverbs 16:9 says, "
The mind of man plans his way

, But the LORD directs his
steps. We make our
plans, we seek to execute our plans, but things always turn out according to
God's plans.

1 Timothy 1:5-7

But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. For some men, straying from these things, have turned aside to fruitless discussion wanting to be teachers of the Law, even though they do not understand either what they are saying or the matters about which they make confident assertions.
